Oc Artist!
I pretty much draw the same two guys over and over, and plan on making silly comics for them! I enjoy exploring my characters' psychology, and my art can have manga/horror influences.
You can find me on Tiktok and Tumblr too!
Happy scrolling!

Hello! I'm Dark, a self-taught artist with a love for media critique and writing! This account is mainly for Oc Art. I tend to draw the same two guys, and that's about it lol.
I'm very attached to my characters, and hope to make a webcomic for 'em at some point. Here's their refs for anyone curious!
Front and 3/4 view of my Oc Brian's reference sheet. He's a tall, muscular white man dressed in a long tan trench coat. A red scarf covers part of his chin, and the rest trails down behind him at around the length of the trench coat. He has brown spiky hair with white streaks running through it, and the hair at the back of his head parts and points up to vaguely resemble horns. Traditional alcohol marker drawings I made of Brian a few weeks ago. The colours have been adjusted digitally to stand out more. The image is four doodles of Brian in different emotional states, wearing his usual attire of a scarf and vest. The colours are mostly green, teal, magenta and black. Front and 3/4 view of my Oc Vean's reference sheet. Vean has two outfits that change depending on the time of day. This is his night outfit. Vean is a very pale man of average height and a muscular build. His hair is a light grey or silver colour, and is slicked back in a spiky hairstyle. His outfit is predominantly black, with the gloves and thigh-high boot on his left side being white. He resembles the grim reaper, as he's wearing a long, torn black cape and a hood that partially covers his face. An ear-to-ear grin is plastered on his face. This is Vean's resting expression, unless he's feeling tired or emotional. A drawing I made for Vean a few months ago. Two of Vean's poses replicate song covers from an artist called 'Femtanyl'. The image is slightly grainy and pixilated, and made up of dark blues and cyans.

Vean has come to make a request! Do you accept?
I really wanted to do some oc art for valentines day this year, so I'm glad I managed to get this done. Used it as a chance to experiment with colours too. #OCsky #valentinesdayart #ocartist #creepycuteart #originalcharacterart #ocart
Valentines day art of my character Vean. He's holding out a bouquet of roses to the viewer, smiling. A sign decorated with roses and vines floats above him, the question 'Be my Valentine?' written on it in black, chickenscratch handwriting. A sign saying 'Yes!' floats beside Vean at the viewers left side. A sign saying 'No!' floats next to him on the opposite side.

Based on that "I depend on you" trend.
Vean can't understand what good Brian is trying to look for in him. He believes Brian is just desperately lying to himself, trying to convince himself that he hasn't agreed to work for somebody so truly twisted. #OCsky #originalcharacter #ocartist #ocartwork
Image of my characters Vean (left) and Brian (right). They are sitting in a dark void. Vean faces away from Brian with his legs crossed, as he stares at his hands with an empty expression. Brian's head is rested on top of the other man's, his body positioned to surround Vean. He looks sad. A part of his scarf wraps around Vean and overlaps with his hands. Vean's hands are purple where their colours have mixed. A part of Vean's hood crosses Brian's neck, also coloured purple. The words "I'm not worth your time." are positioned next to Vean's head.

Some fun facts about Vean that I drew for a tumblr ask.
#OCsky #artsky #oclore #originalcharacter #ocart
An image of my oc Vean. He's looking somewhere into the distance, stanced like he is preparing for an attack. His brows are furrowed in a troubled expression. He's wearing a rugged shoulder cape that surrounds him. The writing in the image reads: Vean's cape is made up of various bits of old clothing he has stitched together through the years, with the main part being a hoodie from his childhood. The cape has absorbed a lot of emotional energy Vean has released over time, leading to it developing some sentience. The next image shows Vean standing and hugging himself, he is shivering. The cape has grown in size, surrounding him to shield him from the cold. The text reads: The cape can't think for itself apart from loosely echoing the thoughts of who wears it. In a way, it is linked to Vean and an extension of him. The cape isn't completely solid. It can expand to provide protection and/or stealth. Image shows two drawings of Vean where he is shirtless, allowing you to see his muscles. His muscles are incredibly defined, and he has little to no body fat. The text reads: Vean's body fat is around 3%, which is considered to be dangerously low. He's pretty much all muscle and bone. His body temperature is also pretty cold. Final image contains two drawings. The top one shows Vean looming behind Brian as he puts a hand on his shoulder. Brian is visibly uncomfortable, with his shoulders tensed and eyes wide as he looks at Vean's smiling face. The bottom drawing shows the 3/4 back view of Brian's face as he looks at Vean, who is waving at him cheerfully. In both drawings, Vean is greating Brian by saying: "Hello Mr. Gray." The text reads: No matter how long they know eachother or how their dynamic changes, Vean nearly always refers to Brian as his surname. Brian gets used to it, but it still annoys him sometimes.

CONTENT WARNING: blood. This was art I made for a tiktok, but I thought I might as well post it here too with more in-character dialogue. There's meant to be one more image but sadly I can only post 4 *sigh*

Image of a man looking in the viewers direction. He is talking to a character we can't see. His name is Brian. The location he is in appears to be dark, as most of his face and body is in a slight purple tinted shadow. A warm light to the right illuminates the side of his face, bringing a shine to his green eyes. He looks vaguely concerned, his brows furrowed. The speech bubble beside him reads: "What did you wanna be as a kid?" The next image is of a man in dark clothes looking up at Brian, who is off-screen. His name is Vean. He wears a hood that resembles that of the grim reapers. He regards Brian with a quirked brow at the question. A bead of sweat is trailing down the side of his face, suggesting that he is uncomfortable with what Brian has asked him. His mouth is contorted in an ear-to-ear grin that seems unmoving. Both men stand in a dark alleyway. Brian appears uncomfortable, as he is slouching slightly. He's gesturing over to a mess of blood covering the floor in front of them. Vean stands completely still, not seeming to care about the blood staining his own hands and feet. Brian says: "I'm pretty sure you didn't wanna be...THIS.", referring to the massacre Vean has just finished. Last image is a closeup of Veans side profile as he listens to Brian. His brows are furrowed in a troubled expression, the area below his eyes dark and tired looking. The speech bubbles from Brian reads: "I just can't understand how you got to this point. Even if you've already told me you do all this for 'fun'."

A witch and her Knight.
This was meant to be for halloween, but I wasn't happy with the first version I posted. There's additional info about these characters of mine in the alt text if anyone is interested. #OC #originalcharacter #ocsky #halloweenart #halloween #digitalart
An illustration containing two characters. The first character is named Vivienne. She is a thin woman with ghostly pale skin. She wears black clothing and a long, dark cloak. Her face is cast in shadow from her hood, which points up like a witch hat. Her face is twisted into a sharp grin that is all teeth. She is sitting with one leg crossed over the other on a dark burgundy throne with vines growing along it. She is reaching down to tilt up the head of a woman kneeling like a Knight before her. The other woman, named Bryce, is bulkier and taller. She's wearing a brown trench coat with metal shoulder pads. A dark red scarf resembling a cape covers her back. She is staring up at Vivienne with an expression of awe. The sky in the background is a light purple. To the bottom left is a rose bush, the flowers are a deep red. Above the characters heads stretching out to the top right is a tree with vines and pale green leaves covering it. Additional info: Vivienne and Bryce are genderbends of the ocs I usually post about. I kept them pretty similar to their male counterparts, but there are some clear differences such as their relationship and Vivs much weaker body compared to Veans. Since Vivienne is too weak to protect herself from particularly violent clients, she keeps Bryce around as a bodyguard. I tried to make Bryce's design resemble a Knight a bit more, so I added the shoulder pads and made the scarf look more like a cape. It also has a hood to protect her identity a bit better.

Vean.. your bullshit is showing.
This is my first time writing alt text. Hopefully it makes at least a bit of sense :>

Image is two drawings. The first is of a man with silver hair wearing black clothing. His name is Vean. He is pointing to his eyes, the one on his right side being black, and the one on his left being white. They don't have pupils. He has an ear-to-ear grin on his face, and the speech bubble beside him reads: "If my pupils aren't visible, nobody can see what I'm looking at!" The second image is of Vean staring directly at a man's chest with a blank smile. The man's hair is brown and spiky, with white streaks running through it. He's taller than Vean, and has a more bulky, muscular build. His name is Brian. Brian is staring at the viewer with an expression of annoyance due to Veans perving. He has his hands on his hips.
